Public bug reported:

1. Install Plasma desktop on Ubuntu 14.10
2. Start software center
3. Try to install any application
4. A dialog opens and software-center crashes:
"Software can't be installed or removed because the authentication service is not available. (org.freedesktop.PolicyKit.Error.Failed: ('system-bus-name', {'name':  ':1.102'}): org.debian.apt.install-or-remove-packages"

This is very likely also a bug in Plasma desktop, but software-center
should not crash if the service isn't available.

** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
